PHP List, Okay, I've upgraded to php 5 on my home machine, and I'm still getting some syntax errors. Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_NEW in /home/dave/web_sites/thinkingworks.com/web/database.class on line 5 This is the code producing the error: class database { public static $database = new database; I've also tried: private static $database = new database; and: private static $database = new database; and: public static $database = 'database'; The last of which I copied directly from the PHP manual. I'm just starting out with objects this week, so I know I am missing a very basic thing. If anyone can nudge me in the right direction, that would be fantastic. Thank you for your advice. -- Dave M G
